Eye of the tiger

Summary:

A snippet of Yuu's childhood with the Khan twins!

Work Text:

"Raj!!!!"

Raj Khan, Dorm leader of Scarbia, is peacefully making himself food when the door to the kitchen was kicked open by Shel, his twin brother, and Yuu Crowely. Adnan came in tired.

"Sorry, I tried to stop him but he's too fast," Adnan said.

Raj smiled. "It's fine, Adnan. Shel likes to do this sometimes."

Shel seemed to realize what he did wrong and looked down. "Sorry for coming in like that, but Yuu was in the front garden alone and-"

"Oh! That's right," Raj said. "Crowley said Yuu would run his first errand by delivering letters to my dorm."

Yuu nodded and held out an envelope which Raj took.

Shel smiled. "Yuu is getting older. It was like yesterday when he was still pooping his pants."

"I'm potty twained!," Yuu huffed.

"Yes you are," Raj said. "Hey, I'm making chole bhature, would you like some?"

Yuu and Shel nodded.

"Yuu, when you get older and start lifting weights you need to be careful, okay," Shel said.

Yuu was in the Savannaclaw dorm watching the students arm wrestle and do physical challenges. Shel was lifting some heavy weights.

"Am wwestle!"

Shel snickered. "Okay, if you want to."

A few minutes later Yuu is spinning a screaming Shel around in the air.

Many years later,

"No way, you knew Raj Khan?! One the most famous chiefs in the world!," Kalim said looking at the 2006 graduation photo.

Yuu smiled. "Yup. He'd give me snacks every time I came to the Scarbia dorm."

Kalim chuckled. "I'm so jealous right now. He came to my home once and the food tasted like it was from the heavens."

"You even hung out with Shel Khan," Jack said. "I understand you were a toddler at the time, but did you witness one of his fights?"

"Can't say, I remember him weight lifting a lot growing up and one time I defeated him in arm wrestling, but I guess he was just letting me win or am I remembering it wrong? ," Yuu said.

Jack gave him a look. "Yuu, I'm going to be honest. Your strength is terrifying and I doubt he was letting you win."

Yuu snorted. "I don't think he was even putting actual strength into the match."

"I heard of Shel Khan!," Grim said. "He's won lots of fighting matches!"

"And lost some too," Jack said.

"Well, no one can always win at everything."
